I've added an AMEX BCE and Discover More to my prime collection and was thinking of buying a name brand wallet to store them. It would be my first name brand wallet because in the past ten years, I've only owned two cheap $40 wallets from Macy's. That's right, I averaged one wallet every 5 years so I don't mind spending a good amount for something that will last me a long time. Is it worth spending $300 for a Gucci or Prada wallet? Louis Vuitton seems a little too much at $500. What kind of walllets do you guys use? Doesn't matter if you are male or female. <img class="emoticon emoticon-smileyhappy" id="smileyhappy" src="http://fico.i.lithium.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-happy.gif" alt=":smileyhappy:" title="Smiley Happy" />Sun, 10 Jun 2012 20:14:48 GMThttp://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/SmorgasBoard/I-want-a-nice-wallet-to-house-my-new-prime-cards/m-p/1441228#M28872Kendro2012-06-10T20:14:48ZRe: I want a nice wallet to house my new prime cards. :)http://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/SmorgasBoard/I-want-a-nice-wallet-to-house-my-new-prime-cards/m-p/1441234#M28873
<P>A nice Louis Vuitton wallet will last you a long time. I've had mine for about 10 years, so worked out about $35 per year... and it still smells (almost) new! Definitely shop around though, some places are way too expensive.</P>Sun, 10 Jun 2012 20:20:28 GMThttp://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/SmorgasBoard/I-want-a-nice-wallet-to-house-my-new-prime-cards/m-p/1441234#M28873creditabc1232012-06-10T20:20:28ZRe: I want a nice wallet to house my new prime cards. :)http://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/SmorgasBoard/I-want-a-nice-wallet-to-house-my-new-prime-cards/m-p/1441236#M28874

I still use (daily) the Coach leather wallet I bought back in 1999. If I could find that style again, I'd buy a new one. Still, this one probably has another 5 years on it.Mon, 11 Jun 2012 00:45:22 GMThttp://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/SmorgasBoard/I-want-a-nice-wallet-to-house-my-new-prime-cards/m-p/1441480#M28891Gray2012-06-11T00:45:22Z
